There are many places that have open wifi hotspots available that you will be able to connect to and won't need any kind of an account. Starbucks, McDonald's, motels, hotels, libraries, etc... often have open hotspots for their customers to use. Sometimes you may need to ask for a code to connect but it will still be free.

The person or organization that has the hot spot has the account with the service provider. All you need is a WIFI capable device to connect and the password if there is one. An open or free hot spot will usually have no password and all you need to know is its SSID. Hotels etc may password protect their free WIFI just to keep the neighbors from getting a free Internet connection, but will give the password out to hotel guests. If you buy a router to use at home you will need an Internet hookup and account from a service provider to get Internet on it.
